Awesome, very on point. Added to the post, thanks!

Pretty cool stuff, thanks for sharing!

Sure. Efficiency isn’t everything, though. At the end of the article there are a few people to get you started. Then you can go to your favorites in that list, and follow some of the people THEY are following. Rinse and repeat, follow boosted folks. You’ll have 100 souls in no time.

That’s a valid point! I’ve been searching for places to hangout for a while, sometimes called “campfires”. Found a cool Discord with generous front-end folks (that’s a broad spectrum!), on frontend.horse.

Sounds good! Sometimes it’s hard to keep the momentum. Get back to me if you’re stuck!

Let’s go, Fred! Join the movement, build a website, share the link, link out, rinse and repeat! :)

Want some ideas? :)

It’s true that starter packs are a great idea. A lot of innovation can be done around lists, and this is a good example. I second what @sopuli.xyz said, taking it slow on the Fediverse feels good. It’s about the quality, not the quantity.

You’d be surprised, man. Of course you’d have to give up on some things, but it’s trivial stuff compared to what you gain in return. I personally was always very turned off by the way Apple likes to lock down all their stuff to their own ecosystem. I like to own my data and have the freedom to tweak my environments and what runs on my hardware. I also realize this is a plus for many people, just giving their soul away to Apple.

Yeah, indeed the top bar is amiss, because this is my secondary screen. But like I say in the post, a did very few tweaks until I go this sexy look. Ubuntu’s default looks and feels great ATM.

Why not? I feel we need the anti-post here. :)
